Which match was better? RG 2011 Fed vs Djokovic or RG 2015 Wawrinka vs Djokovic?

^To be honest it seems to me you're revealing a lack of sporting knowledge. Opponents learned over time how to contend with Novak, there's nothing unusual about that. pre-2011 Novak was not the same as 2011 Novak, he was able to go on that impressive streak and his opposition didn't quite know yet how to counter him. In 2015 he was a better player but his opposition got better too. Despite that Novak went on one of the most dominant slam runs in history. He became a seasoned number one. He lost only one of the 6 slams from AO15 onwards. I don't disagree that his 2011 was more impressive by the numbers. But Stan stopping him, and the way he played, was more impressive to me than Roger stopping his streak. As exciting as that match was for Roger, I found Stan's performance more impressive. Frankly Roger had to hang on in that match, it was small margins in the end. Nothing of the sort for Stan, he won that match running away. He beat the tar off Novak. That's great sporting entertainment to me. Something I never saw coming, hence that match sticks in my mind more. I have no problem with you disagreeing, it's a matter of taste. What I don't understand is why you seem all burnt up about me disagreeing

Oh boy you just know nothing about tennis, hence this nonsense. There is something remarkably different to Novak in 2011 than 2015 which you clearly didn’t see. In 2015 he played more not to lose tennis, which allowed Stan to dictate on his terms, and clearly Stan was strong enough to do it. You clearly don’t have ability to observe, or analyse. In 2015 he didn’t have plan b when Stan was overpowering him, he stuck to his lockdown mode which didn’t work. In 2011 when Fed was on top of him, he went for bigger...didn’t work out for RG but got him over the line at USO from brink of defeat. You are just simplistic, but you actually think you know something....

Sigh... look at the 14th post in this thread mate. I made the same point then. Novak was playing more conservatively for sure. It doesn't mean his level was lesser. It wasn't an unreasonable strategy after taking care of Nadal then Murray by the way. By your own measure I clearly do know something

I don't really understand why you started this thread if you're so adamant that one answer is correct and the other is flat wrong.

Moxie I wouldn't be shocked should I have chosen 2011 if he wouldn't have mounted an aggressive defence of 2015
